RE: Antimatter "Я" Us - An Orbital Antimatter Factory
Remember that positron are produced in many many places all around the world, in a cheap way (i.e. PET scans). Positrons also belong to antimatter. For many reasons, many omit this fact ;)
Thx for the info.
Electrons and positrons are something like 1/1800th the mass of a proton or antiproton.
So I wonder if it would be an inefficient method just because of that?
It depends which type of antimatter particle you consider. For positrons, they are very easy to produce as they naturally arise in many processes :)
